[you can't stop her now that she's figured out how to use her shellphone with video and photo capabilities, and that means... she's going to be causing problems on purpose (and not on purpose)]

What in Storms name are THESE on my food??? Are they BUGS? Are they actually putting bugs on my food??

(not actually bugs, just shrimp, she doesn't know that)

I've eaten some questionable food, but never.... BUGS.

[Are shrimps bugs???? discuss.]

[SHOCKY DAD, THIS AIN'T COOL D;]

I'm not a fan of any of it. Inside or outside. I would rather eat a mouthful of spicy food and choke on it.

[OKAY FINE HE'LL STOP. But he's laughing.]

Fortunately they don't seem to be as common around here.

Now as to your little SHRIMP problem... I never really thought about it, but I suppose they do look a bit like bugs of the sea.

[Oh he is so not going to help with this "discussion."]

Have you seen lobsters or crabs?

[truthspeaker]

Crabs are... like chulls, I think? I don't mind those, they're just... much smaller than I'm used to. I can't recall if I've seen a "lobster" though.

[ramuhs]

Imagine a giant shrimp but with the claws and shell of a crab.

[...she can, in fact, imagine it, because they still sound like cremlings... so he gets an image drawn of that.]

Like this? Because cremlings aren't to be eaten, at all. Crabs are... similar to chulls, just smaller. I never knew they could be that small.

[ramuhs]

Those look a bit more like crayfish, which are smaller and skinnier than lobsters.

[Well. If she's going to draw something, he will, too. Have a basic drawing, with the claws and tail circled.]

Not my best work, but should get the idea across. They have bigger claws and fatter tails, and they be quite large. Seen some as long as man's forearm from claw to tail.

So why can't you eat those cremlings of yours?
